I understand lack of funds and I even understand how difficult it is for some people to send things. Postage costs money and I realize times are tough. That’s why I volunteered to send an extra White Elephant for someone who couldn’t participate. But you know what? At least that person said they couldn’t do it and appropriate action was taken and Bad News Baboon got her White Elephant.
Those of you who have said something or mailed a package are obviously not considered irresponsible. I didn’t get a White Elephant and that’s fine. I just think an email or something would’ve been nice. Heck, it didn’t even have to be to me. I think thinksnow could’ve been notified and he could’ve relayed the message without revealing the identity of the person.
In my refrigerator. I’m not sure you want it though. I got it the same time I stole those champagne flutes. Which basically means it’s been chilling for one year, two months, and eighteen days. I’ve been saving it because you never know when you’ll have to be a quick stand-in for a ship christening.
My elephant has arrived!! Thanks to Bad News Baboon! A partial, but not exhaustive list of contents include:
[ul]
4 exceedingly ugly, in a beguiling sort of way, troll dolls
Sherlock Holmes on tape
a set of those nifty magnets with the words on them that go on the fridge
perfume, including one broken bottle, which made everything smell pretty!
a South Side Vibe cd (which I am listening to now)
a nifty wallet
a little leopard (faux) change purse/key ring combo
playing cards
a calculator
lots of circa 1988 jewelry (this is Really Cool - I use it to make other stuff)
a really pretty silver hair clip - it’s made in FRANCE!
a Scully doll
a shwack of votive candles
a plastic cupcake
a yo-yo
a belt
et al.
